Republic of Ireland

Cycling is a popular activity in Ireland and there is a developing traffic-free cycling route network. Two of the most popular routes are the Great Western Greenway and the Great Southern Trail, both of which are traffic-free routes which make up sections of EuroVelo 1 - Atlantic Coast Route. There are also many sign-posted routes, some of which start in designated Cycle Hub Towns throughout the country. These can be found via the Irish Trails website.
